Safety

verified to shut down the engine by the operator prior 

to performing any work.

•  CAUTION! FLYING DEBRIS!

 NEVER stand or allow 

anyone else to be directly in front of machine.

•  Material being discharged from machine can cause 

severe injury, blindness or death.

•  Always operate this machine from the operator area. 

Never stand directly in front of machine as flying objects 

could be thrown during operation.

•  Never move this machine, or make adjustments or repairs, 

while the engine is running.

While Servicing and Performing  

Maintenance on the Machine

•  ALWAYS Block the wheels to prevent unintended 

movement.

•  Adhere to your LOCK-OUT/TAG-OUT procedure when 

performing maintenance or repairs to this machine. 

Locking and tagging out equipment safeguards 

those working on equipment from being injured by its 

unexpected energized or releasing stored energy.

•  To prevent fires, clean debris and chaff from the engine 

and muffler areas.

•  Periodically check that all nuts and bolts, hose clamps, 

and hydraulic fittings are tight.

•  When removing the fuel cap, unscrew it slowly, and 

hold it firmly. The cap may otherwise be thrown due to 

pressure buildup caused by an increase in temperature.

•  For your safety, repair or replace all damaged or worn 

parts immediately. Replacement parts which are 

authorized by Rayco are the only parts which should be 

used for repair or replacement on this machine.

•  Altering this equipment, or using this equipment in 

such a way as to circumvent its design capabilities and 

capacities, could result in serious injury or fatality and 

WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

•  Do not alter this machine in any manner. Alterations 

such as attaching a rope to the control bar may result 

in personal injury or death.

•  NEVER remove the cap from the hydraulic tank or 

reservoir while the machine is running. Hot oil under 

pressure will cause injury.

•  Relieve hydraulic system pressure before repairing 

or adjusting fittings, hoses, tubing, or other system 

components.

Before Starting Engine

Start the engine only from the operator compartment.  Never 
short across the starter terminate or across the batteries.  
Shorting could damage the electrical system by bypassing 
the engine neutral start system.
Before you start the engine and before you move the machine, 
make sure that no one is underneath the machine, around 
the machine, or on the machine.  Make sure that the area is 
free of personnel.

Visibility Information

Before you start the machine, perform a walk-around 
inspection in order to ensure that there are no hazards 
around the machine.
While the machine is in operation, constantly survey the area 
around the machine in order to identify potential hazards as 
hazards become visible around the machine.
It may not be possible to provide direct visibility on large 
machines to all areas around the machine.  Appropriate job 
site organization is required in order to minimize hazards that 
are caused by restricted visibility.  Job site organization is a 
collection of rules and procedures that coordinates machines 
and people that work together in the same area.  Examples 
of job site organization include the following:

•  Safety instructions
•  Controlled patterns of machine movement and vehicle 

movement

•  Workers that direct traffic to move when it is safe
•  Restricted areas
•  Operator training
•  Warning symbols or warning signs on machines or 

on vehicles

•  A system of communication
•  Communication between workers and operators prior 

to approaching the machine

Modifications of the machine configuration by the user that 
result in a restriction of visibility shall be evaluated.
